Brag Bracelets for Art Class
Are you struggling with classroom management in the elementary art room? It’s tough teaching hundreds of kids every day and finding a simple, but cost-effective behavior modification tool that actually motivates. Brag bracelets are definitely a game changer! Your students will work hard to earn them. And you’ll feel relieved knowing that you stopped behavior problems before they started.
Use these brag bracelets to recognize and reinforce good choices and positive studio habits without breaking the bank. Because honestly, what art teacher has hundreds of dollars a year for a treasure box? Not me!
Is communicating with parents an aspect of your teacher evaluation model? The best part is that these classroom incentives double as an effective parent/teacher communication tool. Write a quick sentence on the inside to share with a parent or guardian explaining how the child earned the reward, if you have time.
Each brag bracelet printable uses only black ink. Print on bright copy paper for a quick way to color code them.
So, ditch that treasure box and get on to bragging about all the positive things your students do in the art room!

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these editable? Yes, I’ve included a limited editable version. The only part that’s editable is the character trait saying. No other part of this file can be altered in any way.
- Should I laminate my brag bracelets? No, there’s no need to do anything beyond cutting them out on your paper cutter.
- What ages are these for? I recommend kindergarten through 3rd grade.
- Does each page have a variety of bracelets or the same bracelet on the entire page? You’re luck because I’ve provided both ways in the PDF download.
- How do you affix the two ends? It’s honestly your preference. But tape or staples work.
- What size are they? They’re 8.5” wide and roughly 1.5” high.
- Do I cut them out around the thick edge? No way. That’s a lot of cutting! There are straight dashed lines that separate each bracelet. Use a paper cutter to cut them quickly and easily.
